Overview
An owner explaining why he's moving up from a Mahindra 1626 to a used 4540, this video is primarily a side-by-side physical comparison of the two machines, size, cab space, frame construction, and three-point details, using his own 6-foot frame as a reference. He shares the purchase price ($20,000), resale estimates for the 1626, and honest notes about the used unit's flaws. Most useful for owners already familiar with the 1626 who are considering stepping up in size.
